I am so ready for Absolute Catwoman next year - Bruce and Selina’s relationship is perfect here.

@ssnyder1835.bsky.social & @nickdragotta.bsky.social continue to push the envelope with #AbsoluteBatman

Bane is officially on notice - now we see what’s left of Bruce - Man or Monster?

🤯

Good grief, @ssnyder1835.bsky.social, @joshuawilliamson.bsky.social, and @xermanico.bsky.social are not holding back here.

#DC:KO #1 is exactly what a big event should be and given the creative team’s track record this is going to be a hell of a ride.

I’ve seen critique of @martinmorazzo.bsky.social’s art in this series, but it continues to be a high point for me. Perfectly matching the Silver-age camp with this issues art-therapy panels really selling how Clark and Billy can express incredibly tough emotions. Incredible.

Can home hurt…?

Leave it to the mind of a child to put such a powerful question out there.

Prince uses The Kryptonite Spectrum #3 to explore Clark’s deeper feelings on these new versions of Kryptonite as he spends a day turned nightmare with Billy Batson - incredibly well written!

I can only imagine writing #ThePunisher can be tricky.

Violent without being gratuitous, but not censoring yourself so much that what violence is shown loses its impact.

@jimmypalmiotti.bsky.social and @urbanbarbarian.bsky.social hit the sweet spot.

Marvel Knights: Punisher #1 rules 🤘

Priest and Quesada are at the top of their game with The World to Come #3.

A look into the past shows us the challenges faced by two future kings and the consequences of unquestioned faith.

Utterly brutal in its presentation.

…Hickman and Abnett deliver another fantastic side story as the Imperial saga prepares to reach its climax later this month with Maresca’s art selling every super powered moment.

Like Carol, I love a team up!

Imperial War: Imperial Guardians #1 follows a ragtag group on the trail of a messianic prophet, seemingly returned from the dead, and in the process, run afoul of the greater galactic game…

*Note to self: Read more Darkhawk!*

Made sure to get a juice box before reading this time!

#Spider-Man’94 continues with an excellent second issue full of exploding bananas and a good bit of heart.

Excited to see where @jmdematteis.bsky.social takes Peter over the next few issues. Are we going full Clone Saga?!

Hard to believe it’s been almost 20 years since @straczynski.bsky.social last wrote Spider-Man, but after reading ASM: Torn #1, it’s as if he never left.

Combined with incredible art from Pere Pérez, Peter’s college years are brought to life as a new mystery unfolds.

Another Steven Wilson show with my dad at #TheTabernacle in Atlanta

I am so glad I avoided any previews or spoilers for #AbsoluteEvil

With TWO WORDS @alewingpromotes.bsky.social completely upends the Absolute universe.

You also can’t ignore the striking parallels to our own darkest timeline.

One year in, and the worst is yet to come.

… and despite being “only” a cape, Sol truly feels alive here thanks in part to Sandoval and Arreola’s art.

Truly mesmerizing stuff here.

Fun fact - my family is from Kansas, so I can attest to just how dumb Ra’s is for thinking he can roll up and cause trouble.

After last months torturous issue, seeing Kal get a moment of peace was so refreshing. @jason-aaron.bsky.social delivers some truly heartfelt moments between him and Sol…
alex0088.bsky.social
… Major props to @jasonhowardart.bsky.social, @inakiazpiazu.bsky.social, and Riley Rossmo - all the Lantern just feel POWERFUL here thanks to your work.

And that last page?

Pure nightmare fuel.

Okay, @alewingpromotes.bsky.social - this is absolutely wild.

Levels of light? Chaotic Action? The sin of one becomes the sin of all?!

#AbsoluteGreenLantern isn’t holding anything back now. How exactly Jo and the others are going to deal with the world that’s coming is anyone’s guess…
alex0088.bsky.social
…and then there’s the art.

@jorgejimenezart.bsky.social just gets Batman. The gadgets, the costume, the Batmo - it’s all in a class of its own.

*Note to self: pick up all the gadget variant covers!

#Batman 2 is simply amazing.

Picking up from last month’s debut issue we find Robin down, but by no means out.

Fraction uses a moment of father-son bonding to frame the adventure with Bruce and Tim’s dialogue breaking the tension of an otherwise disastrous night.

Taking bets on the “secret gear”
